Answer 1

Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{14}}$

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(\frac{1}{4} )^{-2} - (5^0) (2)(1^{-1})$

Solving for exponents and multiplying:

$(4 )^{2} - (1) (2)(1)$

$16-2$

Subtracting:

$\Rightarrow \ 14$

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{14}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf (\frac{1}{4} )^{-2} - (5^0 * 2 )* (1^{-1})$

Using law of exponents $a^0 = 1$ and $1/a^m = a^{-m}$

=> $4^2 - (1*2)*(1)$

=> $16 - 2$

=> 14
